| Prayers
for Those in harm's way during this time of war...
We
pray to you, almighty God, in this time of war. You are our refuge
and our strength, a very present help in time of trouble. Do not
let us fail in the face of these events. Uphold us with your love,
and give us the strength we need. Help us in our confusion, and
guide our actions. Heal the hurt, console the bereaved and afflicted,
protect the innocent and helpless, and deliver any who are still
in peril; for the sake of your great mercy in Jesus Christ our Lord.

Faith
reaches out to our troops...
Cell
Phones for Soldiers...
Faith is collecting old cell phones for an organization that converts
these old resources into calling cards that are given to the troops.
Slimline
Bibles have
been mailed to the troops listed above. A reminder that they
are in our prayers and in God's care.
DVDs,
Video games, and VHS were
mailed last summer to the Thundering Third Battallion (of which
Sgt. George Rapciewitz is a member). A fire in their recreation
tent destroyed their movies, etc. Whereas the equipment was
going to be replaced the videos were not. Throughout the summer,
folks from Faith brought in movies to send over there. The
Thundering Third is currently stateside after many months in the
war zone.
Support
the Troops. Joey Ellis, one of our high school
Peer Leaders, prepared care packages for members of the local New
Jersey National Guard unit which was sent to Iraq. This collection
occured in the fall of 2004.
